♡◇♡◇

being cuddled between his two favorite people was the best thing ever and nobody could convince him otherwise.

today was an off day for Ajax.

he didn't start off great, he hadn't gotten sleep (much to zhongli's dismay) in two days. running errands back and forth for the fatui honestly took a toll on his body , on top of possibly running into a fight (he so loved to release his aggression with a spar) but it was taxing in the end added all together.

when he did manage to come back to zhongli's, the archon welcoming him with a smile though sadly informing him their shorter partner wouldn't be joining them that day (he wouldn't admit he pouted), he instantly got pulled to the bed after explaining himself, the former god physically wrapping around the ginger with a frown and sternly telling him he was not to the leave the bed without proper rest.

he was on board with that, like 200%, dont get him wrong, but the tarista was who he served first. and it sucked when not only two hours later, did he get called to yet again do another run.

ajax could cry. he was so warm, the man, octopus clinging to him, was like a space heater- which was why he was even more pissed when while pulling his scarf, gloves, shoes and jacket back on that aether then surprisingly showed up that he realised he probably wouldn't see him for another few days. he was absolutely seething now.

"ajax! hi-" aether choked on his words when suddenly burning icy blue eyes snapped to meet his. the blonde could practically feel the anger rolling off of him in waves. "a-are you leaving?" aether pouted, coming a bit closer to reach for the taller.

ajax quickly dodged the grab, knowing if aether touched him he would break and wouldn't be able to leave at all. "the tarista calls, i obey, aha." he tried to smirk but honestly the joking words fell so flat on both their ears he physically cringed. wow so convincing.

"ajax, you look sooooooo tired. where's zhong-"

"he was supposed to be in bed." a stern voice came from behind the blond. they both shivered, that tone was typically used for when they both rough housed sometimes when it just went a  tad bit too far. some form of punishment was dealt right after.

"ajax, why don't you-" "i need to go!" ajax suddenly shouted , both of them combined working to get him to stay would do him noooo good.

"ajax-" he shook off the little hand that tried to clutch his, heart fluttering at the hurt puppy eyes, quickly turning to fear taking a glance at the all but disapproving stern golden eyes squinting at him. "i-i gotta go."

and just like that he was gone, he was in a world of trouble when he got back, not knowing the absolute sobbing mess he left aether in, and a somewhat hurt zhongli to clean up the mess.

•◇•◇•◇•

its been 3 days since he last saw them both.

he was done with his task a few hours after he left, but he was too scared to return, he didn't know if he could take the double hurt coming from both his partners, knowing he caused it.

he knew he could escape running into aether if he tried hard enough, the blond was determined to find him if not anything else, but he was no fatui harbinger. though zhongli he should've guessed could have sniffed him out easily. uhm..angry god glaring down at his scratched up bloody form in a random forest in liyue here, honestly, would not recomend.
